Sammy also did a song called Trans Am...soming thing about his 6.6 being too heavy for a chevy

heres the lyrics...

She’s American made;
You know what I mean.
Red on black -
She’s a street machine.
Sets ten inches off the ground with a custom plate...
It says “IEATZ28”.
Trans Am!
Trans Am!
Trans Am!
Yeah, a highway wonderland.
Yeah, and ‘79
‘ll be the end of the road
If you want horsepwer
Overload
Ooh, if you like kicks,
Just take her to the floor
And you’re red lined and shiftin’ gears,
Hear the engine roar
Of my Trans Am
Come on, catch me if you can
In my Trans Am!
Highway wonderland! Trans Am!
Trans Am!
Trans Am!
Highway wonderland!
She shines on the street,
Yeah, and she shies at the heat,
And she shines in my Baby’s eyes,
And she shines on
Every other guy’s Trans Am!
Trans Am!
Trans Am!
Highway wonderland!

T...R...A...N...S...A...M... Trans Am!

From Daytona Beach
Down to Riverside:
If there’s a race,
She’s qualified!
And my 6.6
Gets a little too heavy
For a Big Boss Ford
Or a 350 Chevy.
Trans Am!
Come on, catch me if you can
In my Trans Am!
Highway wonderland! Trans Am!
Trans Am!
Me and my Trans Am!
Come on, catch me if you can
In my Trans Am!
Ooh, highway wonderland!

High...way...won...der...land!

The only guys singing about their cars anymore are Hip hop / Rap / R+B artists

Probably 4 or 5 out of 10 of the hip hop/rap top 10
are about their cars or have major details about cars included.

Would this qualify?

Panama

Jump back, whats that sound ?
Here she comes, full blast and top down.
Hot shoe, burnin down the avenue.
Model citizen zero discipline
Dont you know shes coming home with me?
Youl lose her in the turn.
Ill get her!
Panama, panama
Panama, panama
Aint nothin like it, her shiny machine.
Got the feel for the wheel, keep the moving parts clean.
Hot shoe, burnin down the avenue,
Got an on-ramp comin through my bedroom.
Dont you know shes coming home with me?
Youll lose her in the turn.
Ill get her!
Yeah, were runnin a little bit hot tonight.
I can barely see the road from the heat comin off of it.
Ah, you reach down, between my legs,
Ease the seat back.
Shes blinding, Im flying,
Right behind the rear-view mirror now.
Got the feeling, power steering,
Pistons popping, aint no stopping now!
Panama, panama

David Lee Roth - She's My Machine Lyrics
[Verse1]
It's gettin' late I don't know `Bout 3 a.m.
And I'm drivin' in my '57 dream
It's gettin' late Don't know just where I've been
And I'm comin' to you from All points in between

[Bridge]
A little lovin' On my mind
A little lovin'

[Chorus]
She's my machine

[Verse2]
She gets along Let alone She's premium
And I love to feel her Each and every night
Damn straight She's wild In overdrive
Feels like something's getting right

[Bridge]
[Chorus]

[Verse3]
It's gettin' late I don't know
`Bout 3 a.m.
And I'm drivin' in my '57 dream
She's red She's wild In overdrive
And I'm coming to from all points in between

[Bridge]
[Chorus]

Look out Kick it

[Outro]
Machine Machine
She's my machine
Machine...

Two Lane Blacktop - Rob Zombie from "Past, Presend & Future" CD.

We've been goin', I've never been at ease

The driver don't talk
20 bucks between them just to keep them alive

Drivin'

Were goin', goin' to Amrillo
A zero to a sixty, in a 7.5
A model and a bagel steels California
A glass of a beer, a shot of rye

Swamp Devil  by Artimus Pyledriver.

Rollin' down the highway
Crossin' 5 county line
Big block Chevy, Lord can't save me
Gonna have myself a time

Poppin' that switch, hit nitris
Burn an engine on this ride
Fuck doin' 50, passin' 120
Gonna bury that ol' red line


Swamp devil, she a helluva machine
Straight'n curves like the General Lee
Ain't nothin' gonna stop that hellride
On a dark night, ya hear her scream

Well I done tripped out on fuzz rock
Gonna get high as hell
Four on the floor, gimme a little more
Gotta get up outta here

Meet me down in Macon
Gotta a case of homemade wine
Pour me a swig, time to get big
Shit'll make ya go half blind



Three more stops to make, yeah
Johnny law gettin' hot on tail
Lord can't save me
Burnin' up the pavement
Gotta roll on outta here

Ride out in that sunset
Ain't got a goddamn place to be
Ol dog and my woman, gotta get along
Last y'all see of me


They are a great local band.
Here is a vid from youtube.

The Beatles
From the album Rubber Soul

Drive My Car
Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby, "Can't you see
I wanna be famous, a star on the screen
But you can do something in between"

Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I love you

I told a girl that my prospects were good
And she said baby, "It's understood
Working for peanuts is all very fine
But I can show you a better time"

Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I love you
Beep beep-m beep beep yeah

Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I love you

I told that girl I can start right away
And she said, "Listen babe I got something to say
I got no car and it's breaking my heart
But I've found a driver and that's a start"

Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I love you
Beep beep-m beep beep yeah
Beep beep-m beep beep yeah
Beep beep-m beep beep yeah
Beep beep-m beep beep yeah (fade out)

By the GREAT George Jones:

The One I Loved Back Then

I stopped off at the Quicksack for some beer and cigarettes
The old man took my money as he stared at my Corvette
He said, I had one just like her son, a 1963
'Til the man down at the bank took her from me

Oh She was hotter than a two dollar pistol
She was the fastest thing around
Long and lean every young man's dream
She turned every head in town
She was built and fun to handle Son
I'm glad that you dropped in
She reminds me of the one I loved back then

Then I handed him my keys and said, here take her for a spin
The old man scratched his head, then he looked at me and grinned
He said son you just don't understand it ain't the car I want
It's the brunette in your 'vette that turns me on

I had one that was hotter than a two dollar pistol
She was the fastest thing around
Long and lean every young man's dream
She turned every head in town
She was built and fun to handle Son
I'm glad that you dropped in
She reminds me of the one I loved back then

Lord she was hotter than a two dollar pistol
She was the fastest thing around
Long and lean every young man's dream
She turned every head in town
She was built and fun to handle Son
I'm glad that you dropped in
She reminds me of the one I loved back then

She reminds me of the one I loved back then
